MENACE IN THE AIR.
An army airplane with no on aboard liai mad
flight of mora than ninety niiLes, being directed
and controlled by radio. Thli ii characterized as
the "moit important post-war development of the
many novel ideas of now engines of war." Ameri
cans night feel a greater eense of security over ths
possession of this Invention if it were not that other
nations will b able to imitate and match it.
Loaded with death-dealing bombs, airplanes
night now bo launched from a wireless base and
directed unerringly over enemy fortifications or un
protected towns. The destructive possibilities of
aviation have been multiplied many times by this
automatic device.
Sir Alun Iiurgoyne, a member of the British
parliament, recently displayed the nervous fear that
the thought of Invasion from the air is causing in
bis country. Whereas in the world war not more
than twelve tons of explosives was dropped on the
British Isles, he declared that now the United States
' and one other country which he did not name were
able to drop single projectiles weighing two tons.
It needed no imagination, he said, to envisage the
time when, fleet or no fleet, London might be an
nihilated within a few hours after the declaration
ef war.
His main thought apparently was of a break
with France, although he was cautious in not being
specific when he made the following statement: "In
the cage of one nation, if war were declared be
tween us, her aid squadrons already in commission
could drop 200 tons of explosives on London in the
lint twenty-four hours; subsequent to their first
endeavor, a daily holocaust of seventy tons of ex
plosives could be released on towns and defenses."
This is shocking enough, but his solution, that
Great Britain immediately begin the construction of
greater air fleets is mors shocking still. If the
human race has not lost its senses and its moral
stamina alike the sano answer is in such a drive for
world peace as nevor before had been put forth.
The air has become a vivid menace to sailor, sol
dier and civilian alike, yet fear of personal safety
has never prevented war. Such destruction as this
British engineer predicts would mean the end of
civilization itself. If there are national policies that
stir up international hatred, better than preparing
for new wars is it to discard those selfish aims and
strive for better understanding. The very eager
ness of the world powers to build up their arma
ment is a confession of sin and a demonstration of
the existence of a guilty conscience.
"The most important post-war development"
ought not be the invention ef new engines of death.
Where is the voice of sanity in this mad world?
The hour demands that the thoughta of statesmen
and people be turned to a course that will lead, not
to suspicion and hate, but to the same decency of
conduct between nations as exists between man
and man.
DEEP SEA STUFF
For an inland country, South Dakota has just
put on surprising exhibition of "deep sea" diving.
While scientists continue to discus the possibility of
raising submarined ships from the ocean bottom, the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has demon
strated the problem with an engine which lay burled
beneath the sands of the Missouri river.
For 10 days crew of 40 men worked to re
e?r the mammoth locomotive, G-7 which tipped
ff a pontoon bridge with eight cars of gravel at
Chamberlain during the June rise. A professional
diver was brought from Seattle. His efforts ere
handicapped by the fact that the glass in his helmet
waa uselesa owing to the muddy water and his sur
vey had to be made by feeling with his hands. First
ha hitched the cable about a section- of the steel
bridge that had been washed out. After it was
brought up the tender to the engine and twe ears
were also recovered. The locomotive itself weighed
0 tons, and many were the predictions that this
bulk could not be handled. Yet not one hitch of
the cable slipped or parted as it was landed en the
bank.
A track is now being built over which to draw
the locomotive up 25 feet to the main roadbed; Five
wrecking engines have been employed on this salvage
job, and the sight has drawn persons from many
miles around. You may tell those sightseers and the
movie operator who was on the job that the task
f raising the I.uxitania presents many different
problems, but they wil probably reply that those five
big wrecking engines could pull the bottom right out
of the sea.
FARM TENANCY IN NEBRASKA.
Whenever a public speaker addressee himself ta
the consideration of Nebraska's material welfare, at
some point in the speech reference is made to farm
tenancy. Tnually it Is denominated a menace, r
rauie it Involves iamiloriliw, and is held reponsible
far wil and soil ethaustlon. Conceding the sur
face fvts, the equation may poaaibly take en some
what different espert aftor anamination,

farm in Nebiarka is doing double duty, in that it
is supporting two families. A better sy.tenvof bas
ing ran do some good. Surely, however, relief front
the situation, if it ia to be relieved, will not come
through thrusting the retired owner back to his
acres, but by some credit arrangement that will aid
the tenant in becoming an owner In his own rinht.
HEROISM IN HUMBLE STATIONS.
People who go up and down the great ItiU'ina
tlonal highways note, but little heed the pains taken
to secure their safoty. A blinking light in the nijrht
attracts momentary attention, yet on its ray de
pends the security of the passing ship and all it
bears. When that light goes out, then death hus the
advantage in the game.
Many thrilling tales of heroic conduct of linht
tenders have been written, but no Action producer
has yet been able to match ths cold facts produced
by actual experience. Take for example the latest
of the Canadian government's reports.
A revenue cruiser called at Lonely Bird Rock, a
point in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, whose isolation
is noted by its name. A plsee where a bird would
be lonely is not an attractivs spot for human hibita
tion. The light was dark, and distress signals fly
ing, therefore the patrol hastened to learn what
was wrong.
One of the keepers of the light wss found dying,
three others deathly sick, and the wife of one, a
bride, exhausted by her double vigil of nursing the
sick and tending the light.
Whit web of words will expand the picture con
tained in that simple statement? Steven Bonsull's
hero in "The Bed Badge of Courage" went over a
lifetime of emotion in the course of a single day's
battle; yet all the realism he sustained is more than
magnified in the experience of this woman. If a
volume could be written about one man's experi
ence in few short hours of fighting, what sort of
a library is needed to tell sail this woman underwent
during the weary days and nights of her watching
over sick husband and his comrades and doing tho
work that is a task for four men in keeping the light
burning?
Imagination rests abashed before the record, but
the heart expands at the thought that there still may
be found in humble places men and women who
haw such a sense of duty. It is the sheet anchor of
huir.-n destiny.
ANOTHER SIGN OF PROSPERITY.
Steel Is admittedly the indicator of business ac
tivity. As the mills that turn out steel are busy or
slack, so business generally goes up or down. The
announcement, then, that orders now placed will
keep the big steel works running until late in 1923
before they can be filled, is one of tho best possible
signs that depression is over in the United States.
Carrying the announcement that orders for 46,000
ears, the largest number ever sought ot one time,
have been placed recently by the railroads, the New
York Journal of Commerce carries this further in
formations "Both forelg-n and domcstlo orders ate heavy,
some of Jha foreign orders coming from localities
In which American concerns have no representa
tion and have never received business from here
tofore. "The railroad car buying movement closely fol
lows the record standard steel rail purchases.
More than 650,000 tons of rails were ordered by
the. carriers of tbe country during the recent buy
ing movement which ended on October 1, when
the $8 a ton advance of ths steel corporation went
Into effect.
"Never before in history, according to western
steel authorities, has there been such heavy buy
ing of rails and car. The rail orders will carry
producers wall Into 1921 and the present car buy- -lng
Is so heavy that steel makers will be unable to
supply the tonnage required until late next year.
With Important eteel makers In the west booked
up to the end of the year, practically all of the
tonnage Involved in current car business will go
over into 1923."
Only one conclusion can be drawn from this.
American industry is again alive, and the movement
is being felt all along tbe line. All the people will
share in this, for it is impossible to have one or two
lines prosper unless all the others participate in tho
benefits. Good times are not coming they are
here, and better times are following fast.

A NEBRASKAN IN INDIA.
Behind the oriental veil many things may be
happening. That America does not receive very
full or very definite information is often blamed on
censorship. Yet the real reason may rather be sought
in the inability of the western mind to comprehend
the workings of the eastern mind. For another
thing, the existence of any general public opinion'
in countries whose various districts are isolated
from each other geographically, racially and by
religious differences is to be doubted.
Such are the difficulties that beset Dean Philo
M. Buck of the University of Nebraska, who is on
leave of absence as exchange professor at Baroda
college. In an article published in the Independent
he writes of "The Ferment in India," yet without
clearing up any of the points concerning which
Americans are in doubt.
Anything or nothing may happen in India as
a result or the controversy ociweeu uruain ana me
Turk. Dean Buck admits. Indian Moslems who
supported the allies against Turkey in tho world
war now are rejoicing at the victories of Mustaphu
Kernel and threatening violence if the British
should come into actual conflict with those of the
Mohammedan faith. The native Indian press is de
nouncing Britain for its efforts to withhold the
fruits of nationalist sucrcstes and there is talk of
raising an Indian legion to aid the Turk.
Whatever Britain does, it appears to this Nc-
braskan, it will be prestige, for the moment at
least, in India, There it animooity beUven the
Hindu and the Moslem, and yet as AiutU-a they
would rejoice together at any Kuroneau reverse.

be told whether she had a vole of

That wa all the Kansas Cltyan

This little suggestion is not written for
the driver who is Interested in mechanlce
and automotive power It's written for
those who, like moat of us, purchase a car,
learn to drive it, find out where to put in
gasolene and oil and replace a tire, and
I hen forget about the intricacies under
the hood.
A source of continuous trouble for mot or
igin, Is often In the ignition, and for that
reason, now that cold weather has started,
tho l'jnltlon wires should be cleaned, and
flaws in the insulation repaired. The
tinier should bo examined for roughness
and thoroughly cleaned. Spark plugs
should be cleaned and the polnta brought
close together, for the closer the points,
the easier the start. Coils should b prop
erly adjusted, and any good mechanic or
authorized dealer can eliminate Ignition
trouble at a very email expense to you.
If you want an easy and quick start on
cold mornings, look to your ignition It
will save you money and grief in the long
run,
So will the use of either BLITZEN or
VULCAN, the two best gasolene- we know. J
